Winter is coming: What you can do now to mitigate potential winterkill

In this TurfNet University webinar sponsored by Lebanon Turf, Kevin Frank, Ph.D., of Michigan State reviews the causes of winterkill and discusses management practices to implement this fall that might help superintendents minimize damage on golf course turf.

Preventive measures such as cultural practices that include fertilizer applications, sand topdressing, adjusting mowing height and core aeration, as well as the use of covers to minimize or prevent winterkill are discussed.
